0:00:20 > 0:00:22Hello and welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker.
0:00:22 > 0:00:30And Angela Scanlon.
0:00:31 > 0:00:36For one night we have created a public footpath.I think we can see
0:00:36 > 0:00:40our guest tonight. She's about to explore some of the best walks in
0:00:40 > 0:00:48Britain.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52You cannot keep her away from a path. Is it cold out?It's very
0:00:52 > 0:00:58nippy out there. That is why I have my cosy hat on.Do you want a cup of
0:00:58 > 0:01:06tea? Something else in there.A nice soggy sandwich.A walk is not the
0:01:06 > 0:01:13same... Do you want a bite of this? Can you sort my hair out for me? It
0:01:13 > 0:01:16has something floating in the top as well.It is extra.Shall I have a
0:01:16 > 0:01:22bite and then I can't talk to you at all?There's nothing better than a
0:01:22 > 0:01:28cuppa and a battered sandwich on a long walk.If I am filming a walk, I
0:01:28 > 0:01:36ask where I am staying, can you make me a bacon sandwich, on brown, cut
0:01:36 > 0:01:42off the fat, lots of ketchup. I am not good in the mornings at all. So
0:01:42 > 0:01:47I then wait, stash it in my back pack. 11am, when I have been filming
0:01:47 > 0:01:53for a while and the hunger comes on, that is it - it is when I get my
0:01:53 > 0:01:57cold crispy bacon sandwich out and I love it.We will meet a lot of
0:01:57 > 0:02:03walkers tonight.A lovely walkway. I am sorry I deviated off the path. I
0:02:03 > 0:02:08don't encourage people to do that ever.It gets more challenging
0:02:08 > 0:02:14around the news room. A fascinating series which uncovers the series of
0:02:14 > 0:02:18all the people who have lived in the same house in Liverpool.We want to
0:02:18 > 0:02:22know if you have discovered anything in your house which gives you a clue
0:02:22 > 0:02:26as to who the previous occupants were.Maybe you found something
0:02:26 > 0:02:30written behind the wallpaper, an object in an old cupboard, something
0:02:30 > 0:02:35stuffed under the floorboards.The weirder, the better. Take a picture,
0:02:35 > 0:02:39send it to the usual address and we will show as many as we can later
0:02:39 > 0:02:48on.I am talking about Scafell Pike where last week walk a walker had to
0:02:48 > 0:02:53get rescued after injuring himself. He spent two nights in subzero
0:02:53 > 0:02:58temperatures. The rescue team are calling for
0:02:58 > 0:03:01controversial changes to stop people getting into difficulty in the first
0:03:01 > 0:03:07place.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11place.The Lake District sees 16 million visitors a year. Many drawn
0:03:11 > 0:03:15to walking the 150 peaks. For the unprepared this could be a death
0:03:15 > 0:03:19trap.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26trap. When a ramble goeses wrong local Search and Rescue are called
0:03:26 > 0:03:32out. Last year they responded to 521 incidents, they say it is stretching
0:03:32 > 0:03:38them to breaking point.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41them to breaking point. The rescue mountain team carrying out practise
0:03:41 > 0:03:47exercises once a Monday. I am making -- once a month. I am walking up
0:03:47 > 0:03:52Scafell Pike. Richard, hi. Nice to meet you.Good morning. I have a
0:03:52 > 0:03:59test for you. You have your map and your compass. Let's walk over here
0:03:59 > 0:04:03and see how you cope.Richard's challenging me to find my way to the
0:04:03 > 0:04:09mountain top. It is not always clear which way to turn.You have a
0:04:09 > 0:04:15choice. You can go right across the footbridge. Left, up stream, or
0:04:15 > 0:04:19follow the wall up the mountain. Your choice?I am thinking I will
0:04:19 > 0:04:25take the lowest path because that won't be too energetic. It's asking
0:04:25 > 0:04:29me to go to the right. It is confusing because there is a path
0:04:29 > 0:04:32going straight up. That seems to be the easiest way.You can follow a
0:04:32 > 0:04:37wall. It is not the easiest route or the right route. Turning right is
0:04:37 > 0:04:41correct, Kevin. That is the way to go.So the easiest path will not
0:04:41 > 0:04:46necessarily be the right path.That is the difficulty. Up the mountain
0:04:46 > 0:04:50it gets more and more complicated. What are the consequences if you
0:04:50 > 0:04:56choose the wrong path?Down here not really a problem. Higher up the
0:04:56 > 0:05:02mountain much bigger consequences. Possibly fatal if you get it wrong.
0:05:02 > 0:05:10Tragicall 2017 saw the death of 17 walks on the lake's mountains. Many
0:05:10 > 0:05:13who make these climbs are not equipped, whatever the weather. That
0:05:13 > 0:05:17is why Richard is calling for safe routes to be made clearer.It is
0:05:17 > 0:05:31great that people coming to the Lake District to enjoy the scenery.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34District to enjoy the scenery. Many who have not gone up mountains
0:05:34 > 0:05:38before. Improving the paths, getting some improved signage for awareness
0:05:38 > 0:05:43and that will be a tremendous help to reduce the number of call-outs.
0:05:43 > 0:05:50We are not talking about big tall sign posts pointing, four hours to
0:05:50 > 0:05:54the summit that way - we are talking very discrete. Prominent, saying,
0:05:54 > 0:05:58safely go that way and safely that way.
0:05:58 > 0:06:03But that would require investment by the National Parks management.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07Including the lake's largest landowner, the National Trust.We
0:06:07 > 0:06:14invest money and time every year in the paths of Scafell Pike. Those are
0:06:14 > 0:06:18being maintained and cared for. This isn't the place for signs on the
0:06:18 > 0:06:23mountains. It gives that false sense of security that you are in a more
0:06:23 > 0:06:26managed environment. These are not very managed environments. Signs at
0:06:26 > 0:06:30the bottom of the valley to help people understand the route that
0:06:30 > 0:06:33they need to talk, encouraging people to be well prepared. Those
0:06:33 > 0:06:40are the best approaches. The Lake District's 12 search and
0:06:40 > 0:06:44rescue teams are staffed by volunteers.
0:06:44 > 0:06:51Mountain rescue.Last year, the team had a record number of call-outs and
0:06:51 > 0:06:54she fears they'll become overwhelmed if the National Trust don't support
0:06:54 > 0:06:58their calls for change.A lot of team members have said that they
0:06:58 > 0:07:02just can't sustain the level of commitment. They have families, they
0:07:02 > 0:07:07have jobs. It is the intensity and the frequency that's causing the
0:07:07 > 0:07:12problem. It is not so much the physical effort, it is the
0:07:12 > 0:07:14psychological impact, the continuous stress, because it is stressful.
0:07:14 > 0:07:19We're not looking for sympathy. But we have a system that's at breaking
0:07:19 > 0:07:24poin and we cannot sustain it. And the results of that could be
0:07:24 > 0:07:30tragedy.For any viewers out there who would like to go walking, what
0:07:30 > 0:07:35advice would you give them to reduce these call-outs?Anybody who likes
0:07:35 > 0:07:38walking, keep walking. Keep going on the mountains, because that's what
0:07:38 > 0:07:42we do. We love the mountains, that's why we go out. But just think about
0:07:42 > 0:07:48the volunteers across England and Wales and Scotland, who are all
0:07:48 > 0:07:52volunteers, unpaid, have got lives outside mountain rescue that can be
0:07:52 > 0:07:56disrupted and it can be avoided just with that little thought about
0:07:56 > 0:08:01preparation, equipment and knowing how to use it.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05It is that point, just that little bit of extra thought and a little
0:08:05 > 0:08:10bit of planning. It doesn't half help, that is for sure.Where do you
0:08:10 > 0:08:14stand on it, Julia?Obviously signage is important, but there is a
0:08:14 > 0:08:19balance to be struck between the natural environment. You cannot have
0:08:19 > 0:08:23neon signs flashing up there. I mean, the last contributor in the
0:08:23 > 0:08:26film made that point. People really underestimate walking and they have
0:08:26 > 0:08:30to take care. You've got to know where you are going. You should have
0:08:30 > 0:08:35a map. You video got to tell people. The -- you have got to tell people.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38People who go out in a T-shirt, didn't plan their route and
0:08:38 > 0:08:47something, they just lost their way. Hiking is trendy.I thought you can
0:08:47 > 0:08:50have a similar system as skiing, so with the black runs and the blue
0:08:50 > 0:08:53runs, so people know what they are letting themselves in for and how
0:08:53 > 0:08:58challenging it would be. You are off again, Julia. Two-and-a-half hours
0:08:58 > 0:09:03this time on Tuesday night, ITV, this is Britain's Favourite Walks,
0:09:03 > 0:09:10top 100.Who would have thought you could have a whole night of prime
0:09:10 > 0:09:14time television to do with walking. It is the top 100, as voted for by
0:09:14 > 0:09:21the public. We had a survey. We were helped by friends from National
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Trust from, the Ordnance Survey. 8,000 people took part. They voted
0:09:24 > 0:09:30and said, these are the walks we like and these are the reasons why.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34What makes a good walk then? Everybody has a different reason.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38For me, I like a summit. I like something to get to the top of. You
0:09:38 > 0:09:41feel like you have achieved something and you have got the view
0:09:41 > 0:09:45at the end of it. That being said, I love a woodland walk. Walking
0:09:45 > 0:09:52through wood lands and the canopy of the trees and the rivers... We all
0:09:52 > 0:09:56love different things. But mostly we like somewhere we are familiar with.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00It will be our childhoods. You'll have somewhere back in Ireland where
0:10:00 > 0:10:04you walked when you were a little one. It brings back a memory for you
0:10:04 > 0:10:08and stirs a memory. A lot of the people on this night, they are just
0:10:08 > 0:10:12sharing their lovely stories. There are some heart warming stories. Some
0:10:12 > 0:10:15funny stories. There are dogs. You make it. Everything that happens.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19The thing about walking, it is the great leveller. You can be a banker,
0:10:19 > 0:10:24you can be a Baker, you can be a matchstick maker. But you know...Or
0:10:24 > 0:10:27all three!Or all three. But when you are standing there, looking at
0:10:27 > 0:10:30the view together you are all the same.Talking of standing there and
0:10:30 > 0:10:35looking at a view, you have a beautiful one on the Bronte Way.
0:10:35 > 0:10:44Let's have a look.Look at that! This is the moment...It all opens
0:10:44 > 0:10:50out.It ex-and and you suck in the landscape.
0:10:50 > 0:10:55And this is what inspires the Bronte sisters.Very much so. You feel at
0:10:55 > 0:11:03this point you are walking in their footsteps.You really do.
0:11:03 > 0:11:09That is such a lovely walk.Were there any surprises on there?People
0:11:09 > 0:11:12will not be surprised by obviously the big ones that have made it on to
0:11:12 > 0:11:16the list. Iedly the winner will surprise some people. I -- I think
0:11:16 > 0:11:22the winner will surprise some people.You have Snowdonia, you have
0:11:22 > 0:11:27the Scottish Highlands.All the usual stars of the land scape you
0:11:27 > 0:11:32would expect to be there are there. There are some lovely canal walks,
0:11:32 > 0:11:35urban and city walks in the mix. Most of us don't live in the
0:11:35 > 0:11:40countryside. 80% of the population lives in an urban environment.For
0:11:40 > 0:11:43those who don't want to sit and watch it, they want to do these
0:11:43 > 0:11:47walks - where is all the information of where they are?Information on
0:11:47 > 0:11:51the outdoor guide, which will be live on 30th January and people can
0:11:51 > 0:11:55go to the outdoor guide. They can download the routes and see what
0:11:55 > 0:11:59that top 100 are. OS have been helpful and provided us with the
0:11:59 > 0:12:04maps. There is a lot of information. When that night is over and we are
0:12:04 > 0:12:09all crying, don't worry, there is back-up information for you there.
0:12:09 > 0:12:14Lots of different walkers, different types of walkers.We have Nordic
0:12:14 > 0:12:18walkers. Nordic walking of course is very popular. The poles are really
0:12:18 > 0:12:24helpful for people. Very good for ladies because it is good for s
0:12:24 > 0:12:28osteoporsis and good for upper strength building.Where are you
0:12:28 > 0:12:35from?Midlands. Nordic walking UK. It is for everybody. We have free
0:12:35 > 0:12:40tasters, come and have a go.Do you provide sandwiches, that is what I
0:12:40 > 0:12:45want to know?We make sure we do some stock.Give us your finest
0:12:45 > 0:12:50Nordic walk away. Thanks for coming in. All the very best. We think
0:12:50 > 0:12:54behind it, it is not just for walkers. It is also for four-legged
0:12:54 > 0:13:03friends, too.It is.Max and Paddy. On the night they go along... This
0:13:03 > 0:13:09is Max and Paddy. One has a birthday?It is Paddy's first
0:13:09 > 0:13:15birthday yesterday.How do you feature in the programme?SnooWe
0:13:15 > 0:13:21walk one of the most iconic hills in the Keswick area.They are stars,
0:13:21 > 0:13:25your dogs?They are known nationally or internationally.I think their
0:13:25 > 0:13:30ears should have their own instagram pages.Have you seen the clip? Here
0:13:30 > 0:13:35we go. Hope you enjoy it at home. Magic! Thank you so much for coming
0:13:35 > 0:13:42in. Enjoy the rest of your walk. Thank you.
0:13:42 > 0:13:46They just need goggles, don't they? You can fine out which walk takes
0:13:46 > 0:13:52number one spot on Tuesday. Not the one you would expect.For those who
0:13:52 > 0:13:56don't know it is Burns Night. It is haggis for tea for a lot of people
0:13:56 > 0:14:00across the country as we celebrate Scotland's national bard and all his
0:14:00 > 0:14:03poetry. Some news about the great man which
0:14:03 > 0:14:11may surprise some of you.
0:14:11 > 0:14:16Few poets have captured our hearts like Robert Burns.
0:14:16 > 0:14:21I can hardly remember a time when Burns was not a part of my literary
0:14:21 > 0:14:28life. My family celebrates Burns night annually. On more than one
0:14:28 > 0:14:37occasion I raise a toast to my fellow lassies. New research here
0:14:37 > 0:14:40carried out at Glasgow university could be about to change how we view
0:14:40 > 0:14:48his work. A professor has examined the origins of his poems and songs.
0:14:48 > 0:14:55He's come to some surprising conclusions.
0:14:55 > 0:15:01Over the years there has been a tendency to a tribute songs to Burns
0:15:01 > 0:15:06he did not necessarily right. The professor wants to take his name
0:15:06 > 0:15:11or 40 poems and songs such as favourites Auld Lang Syne and my
0:15:11 > 0:15:18love is like A Red Red Rose.A Red Red Rose has some Burns input but
0:15:18 > 0:15:26not very much but you can piece a lot together from different
0:15:26 > 0:15:3018th-century and 17th-century song books.The line, though it worth
0:15:30 > 0:15:3510,000 mile, seems to have been lifted from a poem written 77 years
0:15:35 > 0:15:39earlier and this could be traced to a song around for two decades and
0:15:39 > 0:15:45the famous opening line may not have been entirely Burns' own work.Those
0:15:45 > 0:15:54that you think of a signature line or not by Burns.How should we look
0:15:54 > 0:16:00at him, plagiarist?No, he was a great romantic editor and we have
0:16:00 > 0:16:04tried to make the editor into an author since his death, to make him
0:16:04 > 0:16:10a voice of the folk.This is quite a claim, because if the professor is
0:16:10 > 0:16:14correct Robert Burns did not write some of his most famous songs, he
0:16:14 > 0:16:21merely edited them. What do local in his hometown thing?Disappointed
0:16:21 > 0:16:27because they are some of his special ones.I prefer to live with things
0:16:27 > 0:16:33as they are now, never mind research.People delight in making
0:16:33 > 0:16:37sensational stories. People say the same about Shakespeare, maybe
0:16:37 > 0:16:41someone else had a hand in writing things.There is one local with a
0:16:41 > 0:16:52closer tie to Burns the most. Hello, I'm Natasha, lovely to meet you.
0:16:52 > 0:16:58Tell us, what is your connection to Robert Burns?He was my great great
0:16:58 > 0:17:03great great grandfather.The professor at Glasgow University
0:17:03 > 0:17:08contests that Robert Burns' name should be taken off red red rose.
0:17:08 > 0:17:14How do you feel about that?I feel robbed. I think everybody will feel
0:17:14 > 0:17:21robbed. It is one we associate most with him and the way he was. I think
0:17:21 > 0:17:27they should get a life and stop spoiling it for the rest of us.Does
0:17:27 > 0:17:31it really matter if Burns wrote these poems? Perhaps not. Robert
0:17:31 > 0:17:37Burns was the people'spoet. He may not have written every single word
0:17:37 > 0:17:41have some of his celebrated works, but what he did was bring together
0:17:41 > 0:17:53the stories of the people
0:17:56 > 0:17:59around him and record them for the ages and in that spirit, this is the
0:17:59 > 0:18:01recital of A Red Red Rose, performed by the people of his hometown
0:18:01 > 0:18:02especially for the One Show.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04O my Luve's like a red, red rose
0:18:04 > 0:18:05That's newly sprung in June.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07O my Luve's like the melodie
0:18:07 > 0:18:08That's sweetly play'd in tune.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
0:18:10 > 0:18:11So deep in luve am I.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14And I will luve thee still, my dear,
0:18:14 > 0:18:21Till a' the seas gang dry.
0:18:25 > 0:18:30David Olusoga joins us. Are we at risk of losing the romance of
0:18:30 > 0:18:33history by digging too deep and finding truths we do not want to
0:18:33 > 0:18:38know?It is because it is so great it has been subject to analysis.
0:18:38 > 0:18:45Obscure writers do not get this. I am cynical. He cut-and-paste as we
0:18:45 > 0:18:49said today, all great artists take bits from here and there and it is
0:18:49 > 0:18:54how you put it together and I will continue to see Burns as a genius.
0:18:54 > 0:19:05They will be applauding you in Scotland. Are you a fan?Yes. My
0:19:05 > 0:19:12partial fancy, nobody could resist my Nancy.We have been fascinated by
0:19:12 > 0:19:17your latest series A House Through Time which charts the history of a
0:19:17 > 0:19:21house in Liverpool, 62 Falkner St. And all the stories of people who
0:19:21 > 0:19:27live there and you have uncovered incredible stories but the house
0:19:27 > 0:19:31itself, why was that selected? Researchers looked at a lot of
0:19:31 > 0:19:35houses and we wanted somewhere where a lot of people came through. Not a
0:19:35 > 0:19:42surprise we ended up in Liverpool. I do not think any city has
0:19:42 > 0:19:45experienced the roller-coaster of national fortunes, the boom and
0:19:45 > 0:19:52bust, as Liverpool, one of the richest places in the 1870s and one
0:19:52 > 0:19:57of the poorest in the 1970s and the house reflects the roller-coaster
0:19:57 > 0:20:00fortunes.You have uncovered extraordinary stories. Tell us about
0:20:00 > 0:20:09them.Who are these? This is a man ridiculously I have come to dislike,
0:20:09 > 0:20:16even though
0:20:16 > 0:20:20even though he did a century before I was born. Wilfred Steele, a cotton
0:20:20 > 0:20:25broker, not a nice guy, and I found myself in the ridiculous situation
0:20:25 > 0:20:30of hating someone I did not meet. The documents do not paint a nice
0:20:30 > 0:20:35picture, he was involved in the cotton trade, slave produced cotton,
0:20:35 > 0:20:44and the treatment of his family. 1935, we move onto something
0:20:44 > 0:20:51happier. This is a nice story.Again you can see how much it meant. A
0:20:51 > 0:20:56wonderful story, a couple, the Duffys, who had nothing, born in
0:20:56 > 0:21:01poverty, they rise up and find each other. It is a beautiful,
0:21:01 > 0:21:06heart-warming story and what is powerful, reading about their life
0:21:06 > 0:21:12and love, being in the place it happened. I have never had that
0:21:12 > 0:21:17before, being in the place amplifies the emotional impact.Tonight the
0:21:17 > 0:21:22episode takes you into the swinging 60s and this is you talking to June,
0:21:22 > 0:21:27about when she was a life model in an art class for a famous neighbour.
0:21:27 > 0:21:33The door burst open and the arrival of John Lennon. He said, my name is
0:21:33 > 0:21:37John Lennon, I have enrolled to do a fine art degree and I will be
0:21:37 > 0:21:46drawing you, is that all right? I said, that is all right, get an
0:21:46 > 0:21:50easel and chair, sit down. He was very entertaining. He used a place
0:21:50 > 0:21:58like a big cocktail party.LAUGHTER. June is the star of the show. She is
0:21:58 > 0:22:03amazing. Her memories go back to this time when Liverpool was the
0:22:03 > 0:22:08coolest place in the world. The bottom of Falkner Street, it was the
0:22:08 > 0:22:12art college and John Lennon live their for while. It was rundown of
0:22:12 > 0:22:17the 60s but I would have liked to have been there.And who might have
0:22:17 > 0:22:24slept in the bed before you arrived. The deeds will tell you if you're
0:22:24 > 0:22:29lucky but there are directories, the normal records in ancestry research.
0:22:29 > 0:22:34It is hard work, but if you are curious, yes.We will get the
0:22:34 > 0:22:35researchers from your show involved!
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Shortly we'll be showing some of the things you've
0:22:37 > 0:22:39discovered in your house, left by previous occupants.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43First, George McGavin on why spiders like to make their homes in a place
0:22:43 > 0:22:51that's pretty unlikely to appeal to anyone else.
0:22:52 > 0:22:57Arachnophobia, chill out, not a spider inside.The chances are you
0:22:57 > 0:23:02may have noticed the spider's Web on the wing mirror and brushed it off
0:23:02 > 0:23:07without a thought. The outside of the car might seem a perilous place
0:23:07 > 0:23:16for a spider to make its home but it is not as daft as it sounds. Peter
0:23:16 > 0:23:20Smithers from the British rack the logical society thinks the
0:23:20 > 0:23:27hitchhikers might be onto something. What is it about spiders and wing
0:23:27 > 0:23:34mirrors?It is ideal architecture for building webs. The wing mirror
0:23:34 > 0:23:39is in the right place at the side of the car and said the spider can make
0:23:39 > 0:23:43a web easily and the space behind the wing mirror gives it a retreat,
0:23:43 > 0:23:50out of the weather and away from predators.The spiders might have
0:23:50 > 0:23:54found a safe refuge inside the wing mirror but the web must take a
0:23:54 > 0:23:59battering from the elements. We have come to a wind tunnel to find out
0:23:59 > 0:24:08how strong they are. When you are driving, you do not appreciate how
0:24:08 > 0:24:13exposed the outside of a car is so I am going to see what wind speeds I
0:24:13 > 0:24:19can take.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22can take. We are using a slow motion camera to capture the test in minute
0:24:22 > 0:24:30detail. As the wind blasts faster, it becomes increasingly hard to
0:24:30 > 0:24:39breathe normally. This is now 70 mph. That is the maximum speed you
0:24:39 > 0:24:46can do on a British motorway, and it is alarmingly strong. I would not
0:24:46 > 0:24:56want to be a spider in this. OK, enough with the wind already. Bah a
0:24:56 > 0:25:03few of my own silky locks, I am in one peace but how would a wing
0:25:03 > 0:25:07mirror web cope in the same conditions? Earlier we have picked
0:25:07 > 0:25:15one up from a scrap yard, complete with door. Let's get it into the
0:25:15 > 0:25:27wind tunnel. We can see how it fares. Time to fire up the fans.
0:25:27 > 0:25:34First, we will simulate driving at 30 mph. At this speed, the web
0:25:34 > 0:25:40hardly moves. So far we have had a gentle country drive in town. Now we
0:25:40 > 0:25:47need to go on the open road. At 50 mph the web feels the strain and
0:25:47 > 0:25:53this is where the unique properties of spider silk comes into play.
0:25:53 > 0:26:01Scaffolding Fred holds it into place where more flexible ones are used
0:26:01 > 0:26:06for the spiral, which makes it able to stretch many times its length. In
0:26:06 > 0:26:12slow motion, it is clear the web escapes the full force of the wind,
0:26:12 > 0:26:17while the spider is safely sheltered behind the mirror, like us
0:26:17 > 0:26:22sheltering from the storm in a house. It looks as if it is more
0:26:22 > 0:26:31than capable of surviving 50 mph. But will it survive a spell on the
0:26:31 > 0:26:38motorway? OK, here we go. That is 70 mph. Not broken, it is still
0:26:38 > 0:26:49surviving.There it goes.It is breaking up. What is amazing, even
0:26:49 > 0:26:55at 70 mph, the main framework of the web is still intact. Meaning all the
0:26:55 > 0:27:01spider needs to do is to repair the spiral in the middle and she is up
0:27:01 > 0:27:06and running again. Thanks to the exceptional qualities of their silk
0:27:06 > 0:27:10and a great hiding place, these hitchhikers can survive in one of
0:27:10 > 0:27:16the most inhospitable places for any wildlife, the open road.
0:27:16 > 0:27:23You will never look at one of those cobwebs in the same way. Thanks for
0:27:23 > 0:27:27photos of the lovely things you have found in houses you have moved into.
0:27:27 > 0:27:35Margot found this when the roof was replaced.Isn't he lovely?I am not
0:27:35 > 0:27:40sure you will say this is lovely. Jeff found dentures in a Tupperware
0:27:40 > 0:27:47container when he moved house.Ian found these glasses under the
0:27:47 > 0:27:54floorboards while renovating their home.Lucy Li from Flintshire found
0:27:54 > 0:27:56this canopy of a World War II fighter plane complete with bullet
0:27:56 > 0:28:04holes in the garden.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07holes in the garden. We have had all sorts of things walking through the
0:28:07 > 0:28:19One Show studio but tonight we have a first. A llama and alpaca. We do
0:28:19 > 0:28:26not want to applaud because they do not like it.Llama trekking and
0:28:26 > 0:28:30walking is popular and it makes an appearance in Britain's Favourite
0:28:30 > 0:28:39Walks. You do not climb on it, you walk with the llama and it is the
0:28:39 > 0:28:50comfort, the soothing experience. Originating in the Andes. Where do
0:28:50 > 0:28:57you walk with them?We have a farm in East Sussex.Get yourself down
0:28:57 > 0:29:02there.
0:29:02 > 0:29:04there.Goodluck Jonathan Britain's Favourite Walks which kicks off on
0:29:04 > 0:29:09Tuesday night at 7:30pm on ITV and A House Through Time concludes tonight
0:29:09 > 0:29:17on at 9pm.And Alex will be here with Rob Beckett and Ade
